GOOD NEWS!

Weekend Gospel message to follow for All Hands (12-14MAR21) Heads-Up --- Please find enclosed encouragement in SO GREAT SALVATION by the perfect and finished work of our Lord Jesus Christ in saving poor, needy and wretched sinners by His sovereign free grace - God's unmerited favor - from our sins and from Hell: “ Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” -Acts 4:12 [KJV ] There is no other SAVIOUR but Jesus Christ to look to for salvation (Isa. 45:21-22; Matt.11:25-28; John 14:6). There is no other SACRIFICE but Jesus Christ to cleanse us from all sin (1 John 1:7; 1 Peter 1:18-20). There is no other SUBSTITUTE but Jesus Christ to redeem us from the curse of the Law (Gal. 3:13; 2 Cor.5:21). There is no other SERVANT but Jesus Christ to honor and establish righteousness for us (Isa. 42:21; Matt. 5:17; Php. 3:7-9; Rom. 4:6). There is no other SURETY but Jesus Christ to guarantee all the t

The Only Way

How can a sinner approach God? How can a son of Adam come before God, be   accepted and be forgiven? Only in the way which God has decreed – NO OTHER   WAY! This is not being too narrow nor radical, for the Scriptures declare this  truth over and over. “There is none other name…” “Other foundation can no  man lay…” “No man cometh to the Father but by Me.” “He that believeth not  shall be damned.” (John 14:6; Acts 4:12; 1 Corinthians 3:11) . Instead of insisting on another way, let us rejoice in His undeserved mercy  which provided THE WAY! God has, in grace and mercy, purposed to show mercy  to sinners in the only way consistent  with His justice, truth, and love –  the obedience and sacrifice of His only begotten Son (Romans 3:19-26) . -preacher Henry Mahan https://www.sermonaudio.com/source_detail.asp?sourceid=mahan

Ordered in all things AND SURE

"Followers of them, who through faith and patience, inherit the promises." -Hebrews 6:12  [KJV] How gracious is the Holy Ghost, in not only holding forth to the people of Jesus the blessedness and certainty of the promises, but opening to our view multitudes, who are now in glory, in the full enjoyment of them. My soul, dost thou ask how they lived, when upon earth, in the full prospect, before that they were called upon to enter heaven for the full participation of them? Hear what the blessed Spirit saith concerning it in this sweet scripture. "It was through faith and patience ." Now observe how these blessed principles manifested themselves. Another part of scripture explains—"they all died in faith, not having received the promises; but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them." Now this is the whole sum and substance of the believer's life:  he sees them afar off,  as Abraham did the day of Christ—as David, who ha
